A Commentary on the Lord's Prayer
A Commentary on the LORD ’s Prayer Matthew 6:5-13 and Luke 11:1-4 version 2 Probably no prayer, in English or any other language, is prayed more often than the one Jesus taught his disciples to pray and use for modeling. Unfortunately, the prayer is too often recited mechanically, without the person saying it or those he aring it fully understanding what is being said. These notes on the LORD’s Prayer should give Bible readers some useful insights into the stylistic and literary aspects of the prayer. Preliminary Notes Jesus’ disciples asked him to teach them how to pray. And Jesus gave them this model, with so me co...

Friday Feature: Classical Conversations
Colleen HroncichOne of the great things about homeschooling is it lets you use a variety of educational styles —project-based, classical, Montessori, unschooling, and more. Plus, you can incorporate as much or as little of each as you choose. While that flexibility is wonderful, it can also be intimidating for parents who are considering homeschooling. Fortunately, no matter which path you choose, you don’ t have to do it alone.That ’s where a program likeClassical Conversations comes in. Started in 1997, Classical Conversations (CC) is a Christian program that meets weekly to help students grow in the...

Building (Tobacco Smoking Rates) Back Better
Jeffrey A. SingerHouse Budget Chair John Yarmuth (D-KY)reportedly added a “nicotine tax” that will affect nicotine‐containing vaping products to the “Build Back Better” bill, currently under construction by House Democrats, as part of a manager ’s amendment. The nicotine tax amendment can be found onpage 1973 of what is currently a 2,135-page bill.Democratic legislators are seeking new ways to “pay” for the purported $1.75 trillion “Build Back Better” package, and it appears Rep. Yarmuth is willing to single out would‐be tobacco quitters for an extra part of the tab.Nicotine ‐cont...

Reign in Your Busy Mind to Live More Consciously
Too often, as we move through our daily lives, we pack more than we need — and I’m referring to mental baggage. No matter where we’re going or what we’re doing, we allow our minds to run rampant and never stop. Recent research shows that humans tally more than 6,000 thoughts each day. Those thousands of thoughts are an irrefutable consequence of our society’s obsessive need to be busy and distracted.
Yet if we don’t stop, even occasionally, from our obsessive mental planning, rehashing and cataloguing, we become disconnected and removed from a source greater than us. Instead of busily looking for ...

The “Maybe Favour”: We More Readily Commit To Helping A Stranger If We Might Not Have To Follow Through
By Emma Young
Imagine that a neighbour asks for a favour — to help move some garden furniture at the weekend, say. Now imagine that, instead, they explain that they’d lined up a friend to help, but that friend has become ill, and you’ll only be required if they’re not better in time.
Rather than a firm favour, this second scenario involves what the authors of a new paper in the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied dub a “maybe favour”. And, Michael K. Zurn at the University of Cologne and colleagues report, we are more likely to agree to grant these favours than ones that we know for sure...

Sunday Sermonette: A note on sources
1 Samuel 7 is just another version of the Groundhog Day story that constitutes most of the previous Book of Judges. A leader emerges who rallies the people to return to exclusive veneration of Yahweh, and he rewards them with victory in battle. As I need say no more about that, let me say something about the document we are reading.I have from time to time mentioned the Septuagint and the Masoretic text. The Septuagint is a translation of the Hebrew Bible into Koine Greek, that is the Lingua Franca of the Mediterranean world from the 4th Century BC and many centuries thereafter. The Masoretic text is the authoritative Hebr...

Notes from the Aging Research and Drug Discovery 2021 Conference
The Longevity.technology team has been publishing notes on the recent Aging Research and Drug Discovery (ARDD) conference, one of the few events at the end of this year to be held in person again after the long pandemic hiatus. It was a challenge for conference organizers to look into the crystal ball six to twelve months in advance and commit to a late 2021 event, but some did. The 2022 conference season will no doubt be interesting, as restrictions relax sufficiently for reliable travel and advance scheduling, and a few years of the suppressed urge to network is finally unleashed. The ARDD conferences are more focused on...

The FDA ’s Inexplicable Crusade Against Tobacco Smoking Harm Reduction Continues
Jeffrey A. SingerWhile the press was understandably preoccupied with the White Housecommandeering private businesses to enforce a COVID vaccine mandate on September 9, it gave little attention to the Food and Drug Administration ’s strike against an effective form of tobacco harm reduction on the same day. The FDA was under a court order to review 6.5 million applications from over 500 companies to market nicotine ‐containing e‐cigarettes andrejected 90 percent of them, while itdelayed deciding on applications from Juul, which commands an overwhelming share of the vaping market. One can be forgiven fo...
